Ted Cruz and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez got into a Twitter back and forth and AOC decided to respond with a few insults and her resume and among the scientific achievements, she listed her high school science fair.

Sincerely,
an Intel global finalist,
a fmr multi-year intern for Sen. Kennedy,
a cum laude dual major in Economics & International Relations,
a fmr Educational Director for national organization,
Who to you is “just a bartender,”
And also your colleague.https://t.co/9ktAgXFXDE

You can be Christian and still believe in evolution. 🙄

I understand how we evolved as a planet and a species, but I also believe that a higher power had to set it all into motion. But you keep wishing you turn into worm food, or whatever. 👌🏻

As if your periscopes weren’t evidence of your intelligence in general, here’s a suggestion. When you’re always telling people you’re smart, and citing your “awards”…you’re losing the discussion. If you’re avoiding answering a question, that may seem like a solid tactic.

Yet, you were just a bartender…

You never used any of those credentials as a bartender did you..

No matter how many degrees or accolades you acquire, unless you put them to use, they in-fact are useless.
